    Any you guys/gals do it? I've got a couple of bone-in pork chops in some brine at the moment...due to the fact that I've somehow dried out the last 2-3 dinners on the grill (eating by myself). I'm also planning on egg-washin' and dippin' em in panko bread crumbs...and then pan fry and finish...

    Will the new 2013 BX25D seat install on a new 2013 B2920?

    Anyone checked into this? I'm just curious, as it looks like the new BX seat would be more comfortable and supportive, especially with the arm rests.
